| I could be interested in such a device in the role of a portable/travel camera but not as a DSLR replacement but as a p&s on steroids. This is IMO the misjudgment many people make to look down to this (as big camera owners) instead of looking up as p&s owners. Considering that last year the market was 93% p&s and 7% DSLR I think if Oly/Panasonic come up with a clever camera they will sell a lot.
What I want from this would be:
- trully portable even though not jeans pocketable at least jacket pocketable;
- their latest 10Mp sensor at least or an improved one in DR and noise even with fewer Mp;
- high def video;
- choice of several FL for initial lens buy;
- large, bright and hi res LCD screen - I really don't care about EVF make it removable Ricoh style and optional;
- at least 400 pics CIPA battery life;
- decent AF system - not by DSLR standards but much better than a p&s;
- 700 Euro tops.
